Using a piece of white card I stamped the lighthouse and the foreground rock using Versafine Vintage Sepia and coloured with my Distress Inks, and emphasised the waves and whitened the white stripes on the lighthouse using a white gel pen. I finished with the sentiment stamped with Versafine Onyx Black and heat embossed with WOW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder. I then die cut this using my Crealies Pierced Rectangle and then cut a white mat a size larger to cover the base card, also using the same dies. I then stamped the seagull on to another piece of white card with the Vintage Sepia and then coloured it, again using Distress Inks, and cut it out. After adhering this to the base card I finished by sticking the bird on to the rock using Pinflair Glue Gel to give it some dimension.

A wonderful scene Pat. Your friend will love it!
What a wonderful scene, Pat! I love how you've given the seagull some dimension in the foreground. xx
This is just wonderful, Pat! I feel the fresh air and can nearly hear the seagulls! (I miss the Norwegian coast, my land of birth, you know.)
I think the receiver of this gorgeous card will love it.
Hugs, Liv
